Description

Caravan of Joy created a mobile summer camp to teach circus skills to 30 Romanian and French young people and children.

  • to integrate children and young people having different educational and social needs into their own community and into different geographical and socio-cultural environments through activities based on the circus arts.
  • to exchange experience, culture, information and skills between Romanian and French participants.

Remarks

In addition to the supporters listed here, many individuals in the villages visited also helped us in a number of ways, including lending gas cookers, cooking our food to save us time and even, occasionally, providing a free meal for the entire Caravan.
